Presentation Overview: 

After a few Treasure Valley employers announced plans to require employees to be vaccinated against Covid-19, several HRATV members have asked for resources related to vaccination policies and other workplace issues related to COVID-19 developments.  John Ashby, an employment lawyer and co-chair of the HRATV Legislative Affairs committee, will address several employment law developments related to COVID-19.  This presentation will not advocate either for or against vaccination mandates.  Instead, John will explain the various options employers have with regard to vaccination policies – from mandating vaccines, to programs encouraging vaccination, to a completely hands-off approach – and the pros and cons and legal ramifications of each approach.  John will also discuss the various approaches local employers are taking in response to the CDC’s most recent mask guidance.  Finally, John will discuss employment law issues surrounding employee leave for COVID-19 issues.

About the Presenter:  

John Ashby is an experienced employment lawyer and is the chair of Hawley Troxell’s Employment Law Practice Group.  John represents employers in all areas of employment law, including wrongful discharge, discrimination, harassment and fair labor standard practice claims.  John believes that good training and a proactive approach can prevent most employment law claims.  However, when employees do raise claims, John represents employers in court or in proceedings before the Idaho Human Rights Commission, the EEOC and the Department of Labor.

Designed to help HR and line managers deal with challenging employees in the workplace, this book enlists a novel approach by tying together several real-life--and often entertaining--examples of employee behavior within a broad range of circumstances. Following the stories in each chapter, an analysis of how the HR professionals handled the situations highlights the benefits and detriments of their choices, showcasing both successes and failures--and what can be learned from them. Providing valuable examples and thought-process guidance, this record is ideal for understanding the ethical and legally defensible practices of human resource management.

Learning Objectives:  

As a result of attending this session, participants will:

• Examine three key trends that are transforming talent management in 2021
• Recognize the agility and benefits that coaching offers as a leadership development and retention solution
• Explore the unique value proposition of cloud coaching in response to evolving workplace demands

AUGUST MEETING PARTNERS

Performance Conversations: Using Questions to Coach Employees, Improve Productivity and Boost Confidence (Without Appraisals) 

By: Christopher Lee

Read and discuss Chapters 1 to 9

There are three universal truths about traditional performance management. They are widely used, universally despised, and are known to be ineffective. As a result, many organizations are grappling with what to do instead. They have adopted many interesting and innovative practices, but most are a random collection of activities that are not bound together by a sound theoretical framework. This new approach is built upon a sound theoretical foundation, uses proven management techniques, and offers a novel framework and tool for managers for regulating and enhancing the performance of their staff. Dozens of ready-to-use templates and accompanying tools help make good management practice more accessible, practical, and effective. Just as important, the new approach is both millennial- and remote worker-friendly as it incorporates features that speak to how they work.
